2.6.16-rc5 huge memory detection regression

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,
I just tested 2.6.16-rc5 kernel on MSI 9136 dual Xeon server motherboard with 16 GB of memory and the kernel detects only 8 GB of RAM instead. 2.6.15 kernel detected properly 16 GB. I haven't tested any kernel revisions in between these two, but could if you point me in a specific direction. Attaching diff(1) output of dmesg(1) outputs.
Please Cc: me in replies. Thanks!
Martin
